This show was sooooo disappointing. They completely missed the big picture. There was no context. If I knew nothing about FIRST, I would wonder what the fuss was about and why anyone would want to do this. As others have said, they made it boring. I felt like they edited out most of the important stuff. The show suffered from a serious editing problem and a serious script problem.
I have to give a lot of credit to the four teams that were followed. They showed a lot of restraint, and grace. It’s not easy having a mike stuck in your face and asked inane questions. I found the announcers comments and questions filled with stereotypes (there was one baiting 103 about playing against a bunch of girls or something to that effect.)
Maybe it would have been better to follow only a couple of teams and get a better picture of what they are about. The documentary that was on last year was better. It’s too bad because this one will get more exposure.
